I know this to be a faked version, since I

So this over priced junk program I'm using is YOUR fault?

I'd pay more, if I got features I would *use*.

Figures. :)

No.... I refuse to take credit. In fact, I've become so disenchanted
with the direction Forte is taking with Agent (whatever that is) that
I am looking at alternatives.

PS: I'd love to give your BETA team some ideas on how to down size
this monster and make it more usable.

You are preaching to the choir. I can't say a lot of things I'd love
to say.... I signed a non-disclosure agreement.

I'd better zip-it.....



I have to say, Gene, that I admire your patience and tenacity in
sticking with a software program that was a decade behind the times a
decade ago and still is.

I try the latest iteration of Forte about once every two years, and
always seem to have the same response to it..."my god, they actually
charge for this p.o.s.?"

Meanwhile, I have an issue with a Russian software program I've been
using for more than a year. The latest iteration causes Windows (XP or
VISTA) to suddenly freeze with many programs that use copy and paste,
such as the program I use to record a file name on a download website
and then paste it into a download manager.

Arrrgh.

The user group knows of the problem and the Russkis have been "working
on a solution." For a month. So in the meantime I have had to remove
the offending program.


Harry, If I can help you solve your Window problem let me know.
